"another" ... quote "another" ......... i can bear to hear the word "another" from My De Orc!!! i am having quite the hard time keeping up .. or rather putting up the front that i am trying to keep up, i actually conceeded a while back Cool coins!!!!
the egyptians didnt build the pyramids.. come on now.. the Aliens did - doesnt everyone know that i have always wanted to see the pyramids take apart piece by piece, just to see what other 'room's are hdidden within the walls - let alone all the secret treasures from the Egyptian past. I dont know what would be worst, never knowing what treasues 'might' be hidden within, or how different the pyraimds would look after being taken apart and then put back together lol guess its best to never know
Just picked up two more on ebay for 99p (Aprox $1.90) they were so cheap I just had to buy them LOL I agree but not alians, it was the Irish, the worlds greatest builders who did the Pyramids. Then they hid all the cranes and dozers etc just so we woudnt know how it was done
Well the 2 new ones have just arrived AH1357-1938 10 Milliemes Value in Arabic King Farouk 1936-52 AH1360-1941 10 Milliemes Value in Arabic King Farouk 1936-52
Very nice, Steve. That hexagonal 2 piastres has always been my favorite of the Farouk issues. I can't quite see from your photo but is there an H mint mark below the MILLEMES of the AH1335 5 milleme coin? If so, it was minted at the Heaton mint.
Will have to check that out, I never noticed it when scanning but hey this is me we are talking about here LOL Thanks for bringing it to my attention :hug:
